Every time stock markets drop, headlines say that billions have been lost. But where does that money actually go? If you want to understand crashes, confidence, and the baked bean market (trust me), this one’s for you.

High speed rail built in China in 12 years.

HS2 started in 2009 it won’t be finished till 2042 and will be 8x more expensive than any other Railway in the world at more than £500,000,000 per mile.

It‘s one huge scam.

HS2 was a scam, it was never meant to be completed, just a way to give hundreds of billions to donors with kickbacks for the politicians involved.

We are very close to a near cure for two of the highest-mortality cancers we know: glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. These are both mRNA based treatments which are losing their funding during stage I and II trials. Thousands will die needlessly because of this motherfucker and his lies.

Heathrow hotels quadruple prices as flight cancelled.

Stranded passengers at Sofitel hotel near the airport asked to pay £700 a night for a standard room.

Holiday Inn quadrupled prices.

Capitalists have no ethics/compassion. No regulator would investigate.

Boycott price gougers.

Andrew Watson. A pioneer and a Scotch Professor.

He was born in Guyana, the son of a Scottish sugar planter and a local woman named Hannah Rose.

He became Scotland's first black association footballer, and one of the world's first. He captained Scotland at international level too.

A legend.

Oh, Hampden in the sun…

This remains the greatest ever margin of defeat in an Old Firm match. An absolute demolition.

Wilson, Mochan and Mc Phail
And Willie Fernie scored as well.

The UK has one of the highest retirement ages in the world, the lowest pension in Europe, some of the longest working hours in Europe, one of the lowest minimum wages, the highest energy costs, the biggest profits, and the lowest taxes for the richest.

It all needs to change.

Spain built a 385.9 mile high speed train line from Madrid to Barcelona it cost £8.1bn.

The UK is still building a 140 mile high speed train line which will cost over £100bn.

Who is stealing all the money?

27 Jan is #HolocaustMemorialDay

Many people of my age cut their political teeth supporting the Anti Nazi League & Rock Against Racism. We opposed Fascism, anti semitism and all forms of racism.

The populist right is on the march so as the poster says we must say “Never Again”.

Total wealth of 57 UK billionaires increased by £35m per day to £182bn in 2024.

Most of the wealth is taken, not earned.

16m Britons live in poverty.

Govts refuse to levy wealth tax. Capital gains & dividends taxed at lower rates than wages.

Who governs?
